Intuition
Cultivating inner knowing
A question currently animating me about the inner life/spirit is:
How do I define home, when physically, I'm not in a place for longer than three months?

A question currently animating me about the outer world/universe/multiverse is:
In an era of profound loneliness, how can we reclaim third spaces and promote natural and welcoming human interaction?

The practices I’m finding most helpful at the moment are:
Journaling

A moment I noticed my inner light kindled this month was:
Returning home after my travels. Being back home surrounded by my family really replenished my heart <3
December 31, 2025
A moment I noticed my inner light dwindled this month was:
During the last week of my travels, I found myself reflecting on the last few months. While ready to return home, part of my still felt as though there as more for me to experience, and my journey was not over yet.

Courage
Aligning action
Assumptions I'm examining right now are:
Time/Attention
December 31, 2025
I originally assumed:
I used to think that maximising my time revolved around getting from point a - b the most efficient way possible.
December 31, 2025
These assumptions are changing:
Now I sense that maximising my 'time' is dependent on what I'm learning throughout the journey, and what experiences I am gaining during said journey, instead of what is at b.

A moment I stepped out of my comfort zone this month was:
For my last dinner in Peru, I took myself out to a nice restaurant alone. Sitting by myself in a place where people rarely dine alone, I realised I was comfortable, but also questioning the difference between being alone and feeling lonely.

Compassion
Engaged Empathy
Something that is helping me build trusting relationships here is:
Whatsapp! What a wonderful app to connect with anybody and everybody across the globe :)

Being intentionally away from technology and distractions has taught me:
How fulfilled my life is when I’m in the mountains, rivers, and trees. The sensation of inner being and connection to the sacred when I’m present with Mother Earth.

Feeling welcomed by the world around me. 4500m above sea level, only myself and my travel companions were at this lake. Without access to wifi (or the world at large!) I felt truly present in the space I was existing in—both physically (the earth and mountains had let me inhibit this space) and mentally (I was at peace, without the buzz of the world beyond).
